How to Remove Press-On Nails

How to Remove Press-On Nails

Never force, pull or peel press-ons off. Gentle removal helps protect your natural nails and keeps reusable sets in better condition.

Removing adhesive tabs

Soak your nails in warm, soapy water for a few minutes. Work a small amount of cuticle oil around the edges, then gently lift from the sides with a cuticle stick. If the nail does not lift easily, soak for longer and try again.

Removing nail glue

Apply press-on nail glue remover around the edges and wherever the press-on is attached. Allow it time to loosen the bond, then gently work from the sides with a cuticle stick. Add more remover as needed rather than forcing the nail.

After removal

Remove any remaining adhesive gently, clean reusable press-ons, and store them safely in their box for your next wear.
